Hi,
I had some how ended up with three Desktop data bases for my contacts, each with a different number of records in.
I followed one of the online set of instructuctions for consolidating these dbases HOWEVER I managed to use the wrong set of instructions........ (I wont use the language that came to mind when i realised!)
I have backed up my bberry and all of the contact recrods are there (411), I can see them in the 'Select Data to Restore' window whilst my bberry shows only 99 records. These 99 are clearly the 99 in the syncing contact dbase.
I have tried to restore the dbases to my bberry but cannot select the 'Address Book - All' to give me the 411 entries, and the restore just gives me the 99.
Can someone please help?
Thanks
Leon

Is the address book database in the Desktop Software restore window greyed out, or what happens?

Brilliant!
Thanks for that, worked great, all my contacts are now back on my bberry.
Now I just need to figure out which set of instructions I need to follow to combind the three desktop contact databases I have on my bberry into one and I'll be a very happy bunny!
Any Suggestions?![]()

Great!
On your BlackBerry, what are the three names of the calendars you have separate?
Are they each connected to a different email account?

All three are called 'Desktop' only one of which is syncing.

Sorry,
They, at some point or other, all connected to the same account, I woudl guess they became detatched at some point and another was created.
Thanks
